The Finished Wedding Dress

It is finished! From mock-up to complete gown, this project has been a wonderful learning experience for me. Thank you to God for giving me a creative mind and able hands. He has been with me every step of the way. Thank you to Sarah who had faith in me even though I had never really made a formal gown before. What a rewarding experience, to make a wedding gown for a very good friend of mine!

I look forward to the next few months as I put together the dresses for the bridesmaids. I will have some step-by-step photos posted of those as I go through the process of making the dresses.

Formal photos done by Chris Bolduc Photography will be taken in the near future. For now I have posted some pictures of the bride in her finished gown with a red veil. (I have yet to make her red satin belt to accompany the dress). Enjoy!
